cofounder/ceo @umbrel (we’re hiring) • building a home cloud to put your data back in your hands

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

Umbrel Pro has been a labor of love in the truest sense.

We've been building this for over a year. The level of obsession that went into the materials, the design, the thermals, and the tiniest details is absolutely insane.

It feels like pure magic the moment you hold it, pop open that magnetic lid, and slide in your SSDs.

The team poured absolutely everything into making today a reality. So incredibly grateful to be working with such a world-class group of people.

@Albercoin @umbrel yess, it's coming soon

Most people want to be seen more than they want to create.

It is much easier to get a badge (college, accelerator, seed round, followers, job offer) that confers status than it is to build a great product.

The Hermes Web Dashboard got a major overhaul: it is now a feature-complete admin panel that you can manage entirely from your browser.

@overtorment @umbrel yepp it already is in the store https://t.co/ByAZPyL4LM

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@arguser @umbrel @NousResearch Oh gotcha, also consider configuring it to chat via Telegram/Discord - thats way more stable and works from anywhere/any network (without even Tailscale)

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@arguser @umbrel @NousResearch Ya its weird why it didn't work out of the box.. which model and reasoning effort are you using out of curiosity?

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@arguser @umbrel @NousResearch Hmm that's weird, is your Hermes app up-to-date?

Also, could you send your agent this message:

The bundled headless browser should already be under /opt/hermes/.playwright, not /opt/data. Find the chrome-headless-shell binary there and try navigation again using that browser.

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@arguser @umbrel @NousResearch Interesting, it already ships with a built-in browser on Umbrel. Could you share the error you faced?

[Teknium 🪽 @Teknium]

Just want to make this clear:

We didn't make Hermes Agent to be a "starts with nothing, you work it all out" agent. This is not the minimalist, start from nothing, agent.

We want Hermes to work out of the box for most people. So you aren't spending weeks just getting the agent to work, or have the capabilities you need.

This means that yes, there are more built in things then something like nanoclaw or pi, which start with nothing, and you just have to figure it out.

That is an intentional design decision.

You can from the modest baseline that has capabilities that are likely broader than you need, but not egregious, take it from there if you want to tinker with it.

Run `hermes skills config` or `hermes tools` to disable whatever you want.

We even have a way to upload your whole "Agent" as a github repo, so you can install hermes fresh with your exact setup again later or share them.

We have a massive interface for extensions so you can tinker with it to infinity.

But if you don't want to become an agent engineer - with Hermes, you don't have to.

[Umbrel ☂️ @umbrel]

Ok this one's dope - @papercliping is now live on the Umbrel App Store!

It lets you run a whole team of AI agents like a company, right on your home server.

Create agents with API keys, or login with your Codex/Claude Code subscription, or even onboard your existing OpenClaw/Hermes agent as an employee in your company!

A simple proposal for adding Bitcoin finality guarantees to the Liquid Network.

This isn't particularly impactful today, but would be an important change if Liquid moves to a BitVM bridge to enforce the 1-of-n custody trust assumption.

@GrayersDad @nezdemkovski @umbrel That's not safe, it'd persist reboots but the overlay would be lost on an OTA update. If you use the hook, all changes will be persisted across both reboots and updates

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@GrayersDad @nezdemkovski @umbrel Sorry about that, could you try this workaround? https://t.co/qDx4T0lylO

Hit us up via https://t.co/JKZ0CILyPB if you have any questions or need help creating the pre-start hook

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@MahrajSuraj never misses, the new app store website is pure delight

[Umbrel ☂️ @umbrel]

The umbrelOS App Store just crossed 300+ apps. So we rebuilt https://t.co/jrvwiUBhtI from the ground up.

Huge respect to every developer building these apps, and every contributor submitting them to the store! 🙌

Go find your next self-hosted obsession for your home server. Live now.

@Fully_Electric @umbrel what a boss

[Mayank Chhabra ☂️ @mayankdotch]

@dotta when @umbrel app? would love to see it on the umbrel app store, these ones are the only blockers:

ANOTHER umbrel user just solo-mined a block via public pool. less than 7 days after the last one

y'all it's getting hard to write these tweets. we've used up "ANOTHER ONE." we've used up "the simulation is broken." we've used up "save the draft."
we need new vocabulary for an event that we didn't realize would happen this often.

anyway, congrats to the new legend!! 👑
